    @Jen_967 I have ET, too. I'm so glad you've had great outcomes with the surgery. I hope this one is a speedy recovery to a tremor-free life! Heal quickly.

    I just received my new Fitbit in the mail last night, my last one bit the dust a few weeks ago. I'll be back on the step wagon next month with you all.

    Jessica

    Sorry I didn't get a weigh in done this week, too many other life things going on. I'll get it done next week.

    As part of supporting each of you in your journey, I'd like to ask for a slight change in our Weigh in process/format. Each week when you post your weigh in, I'm making a little change to the format. Instead of posting in the usual format (see example):

    JessicaKrall8
    Wednesday Weigh-in
    PW: 324.2 (previous weight)
    CW: 324.0 (current weight)

    I'd like to add a 5th line of LSF (Lost so Far): 55.8

    This will help us to celebrate your achievements and give you a little boost each week as you see that number grow.

    No need to re-post anything, just start with your next weigh in! Thanks and help us to help you! :smile:

    Jessica

    Great idea Jessica!

    Can I just check - should we report weight lost since joining Trimstones, or weight lost overall?

    @Emmajhare I think that can be up to each person...this is optional, as some might want to keep this private, but we just want to help celebrate your milestones...

    Yeah it’s been a difficult thing to deal with. I’m glad the surgery helped me. Have you had DBS surgery?

    I'm not losing as fast as I like but I'm also not tracking drinks (just limiting their appearance). I'm really going to sustainable habit changes that can result in long lasting weight loss but that means slower weight loss. It's hard not to be disappointed.

    @JOYfulNoise89 I can sympathize with you. I've been at it a long time and haven't lost that much. There was a lot of bouncing up and down for quite a while until lately where I started to see more positive downward trends over the last month.

    We can do it though! Even if it takes us a long time!

    I just noticed Jessica's idea about adding lost so far to weigh ins. I didn't actually post my Monday so I'll do it now

    Mulecanter
    Monday, Week 4
    PW: 213
    CW: 213
    LSF: 36

    (it was as high as 66 for a short time years ago then a series of lame excuses came into play)

    In an effort to recognize accomplishments and celebrate more, beginning in JULY we will start using the format below for our weigh ins.

    You will notice a new line at the bottom LOSS TO DATE or LTD -- THIS IS OPTIONAL! If you want to celebrate your victories, please include it. If you feel that it is TMI - just leave it off.


    Here is our new format:

    Saturday
    PW: 202.6
    CW:200.8
    LTD:41.2


    LET THE CELEBRATIONS BEGIN!!!!!

    Do anyone else think you’ve posted here, and then realize - no, I haven’t, I just read everyone else’s posts 😄

    Been a rainy week so far - tough to get outside with the thunder/lightning. But it has cooled the temps down from the 90’s down to the 80’s, which is welcome. I’ve got weightlifting this morning (inside) then I’ll try to get at least 9
    Holes of golf in. Helps with my steps.

    Travelling, so not my scale... Or my regularly scheduled schedule. If it weren't for Corona I'd have to see which of you lovely peeps I could meet up with along the I-81 corridor. I finally returned my mom to her home after she quarantined for 3 months with us in Alabama. She came for spring break, Covid came, and we all decided she was stuck with us cause flying seemed like am unwise choice and Connecticut an unwise destination! Heading back to Alabama on Friday.

    @jessicakrall8 @kmfeig87 WOW ladies, you've done so well with your weight losses so far! Congratulations!

    @mulecanter I'm the queen of yo-yoing - I'll post my embarrassing MFP chart one day - it looks like a seascape with all the waves. I'm relying on you folks to keep me in check this time though so we should shout at each other if we go up too much.

    @JOYfulNoise89 @Arc130 its great you are taking a sensible and sustainable approach to your diet rather than just chasing quick wins. If it comes off slowly then it is less likely to go back on again afterwards!

    @kmfeig87 your trip sounds amazing. I'd love to be kayaking down a river. Keep us updated with your travels!
